@@daspeenut4421 I disrespect it. Why, because hey speak for a generation of people for money. Even childeren of a young age.Listen too this music. And not everybody comes from the ghetto. That is point 2 why I disrespect this music. And it is not a true story. So hey speak evil messages too a generation of people for money.What nonsense is. That is point 3 why I disrespect this music. Music is a mind control. Even people from a young age. Listen too this music. Remember that my friend. That's why my friend. What do you think about influences. You can be a thug or gangster. But you speak or rap for a generation of people. Even people from a young age or people hue not come from america or ghetto. That's why I disrespect this music. I like hip hop. It sounds nice. But I see the differences of it. Not everybody sees that way. Specialy a kid from a young age. That's why my friend. Hey speak evil messages too people too get paid. What not a true story is. That make no sense too me. The devil is real. But what hey do with his music is making it worst for people and even a generation of people too get paid. That's why I don't like him. And it makes no sense too me. And not everyone is black or a thug or comes from america. You give that message too those people too. That's why I dislike it. And his story is a lie. What is about evil. There a still people in the world hue are from god and are not black. That's why I dislike it.
I remember when me and my friend first heard this song like over 5 years ago. We listened to this song like 20 times in a row just to hear every part of this crazy song.
Fabrizia Mugnatto The story isn't true but it's a possibility that this happens somewhere in the world. It has plenty of meaning talking about the flashy gang life, how we treat women and drugs.
It couldn't be an actual true story. If it was immortal technique would be in jail bc he legit put a song out describing the whole event. And the dude who jumped off the building probably woulda been on the news and he would be known to the public.
"with 'Dance with the Devil' it was a true story that I made myself more of a part of when I wrote the song, it became an urban legend and what's sick is that people thought it was about rape and it was really about how we are killing ourselves and destroying the most valuable resource that the Latino/Black community has, our women."
This song uses just about every element of literature and psychologically thought provoking concepts possible. The sophomore English class at my school is doing an entire project on this song.
+suck mycockThe fact that its a ballad doesnt make it similar to another Ballad. Its about a crazed dude willing to do anything to make their dreams come true. Maybe you should be a bit more open minded before being an asshol.
Everybody this isn't a true song. IT even said at one of his shows that it's not actually a true story, but it was made to make people realize that stuff like that actually happens all the time and the reason it gives you chills and is so cold and deep is to make you think before you turn to the street life and make bad decisions. Thumbs up so people can see this.
Believe me when I say you don't have to like rap to realise that Immortal is an amazing lyricist. Anyone could write another love song or RnB song and not put any thought or empathy into it, all that is bullshit. You need courage and a strong mind to put a rap like this out for others to see. Immortal's stuff is the most powerful music you'll ever hear.
Whenever i am phased to a situation which could lead to bad results i think about this song and shut down the offer.Huge respect to the guy who wrote this.
This is probably the only rap song that speaks to me. It almost makes me cry every time I listen to it. Old rap like this was the best. Current rap artists rap about random sh*t. No meaning what-so-ever.
I can never get enough of this song... Its so fucking deep and just.... i just don't even know the words to put it as how deep it truly is. I cant believe that he was with him doing that.
First rap song i was ever actually able to listen to. brought me chills though.. "the devil grows inside the hearts of the selfish and wicked" the most true and yet impacting sentence in the whole song. "so when the devil wants to dance with you you better say 'never' because a dance with the devil might last you forever."
Comments like the one below I don’t get, I like good music, i was here when i was 16 and I’m here now, when I’m over 30. I’ll be here when I’m over 40, cuz dope music is dope music. No matter the year xxxxx
Immortal Technique is a straight up rap legend... I know people who quit selling weed after listening to this.
Denver Riddell dont quit
Denver Riddell songz not even about weed,
yeah selling weed is real hard core shit

Been listening to this forever and still, as always, mind=blown.
this is world class rap, this man is a true poet
where is this level of lyrical skill in todays most popular hip hop music
show me
Let this song be a lesson for you youngins who claim they gangster, this could be you.
I love this song
This is a true masterpiece of rap, and the lyrics have meanings, that's what rap is supposed to be about
This is one of the best artistic portrayals I've ever heard in a rap song.
Who just randomly waching this? 2019 anyone 😂😂😂

Right here

Ah!
2017
2018
i've listened to this song for at least 50+ times... such a great song!!!!
God damn. Strong lyrics. I never hesitate to shiver when I hear that piano..
This song basically describes how we treat the women in our life with disrespect but have you ever thought what would you do if that was your mom.
it is way deeper than that
That was a short explanation of what Immortal Tech said the he thought about the song.
The song isn't a metaphor, it's a true story. He's telling you not to get caught up in the flashy gang life, b/c it's not worth it.
Fabrizia Mugnatto The story isn't true but it's a possibility that this happens somewhere in the world. It has plenty of meaning talking about the flashy gang life, how we treat women and drugs.
great analysis
It is so sad that this is a TRUE story
It couldn't be an actual true story. If it was immortal technique would be in jail bc he legit put a song out describing the whole event. And the dude who jumped off the building probably woulda been on the news and he would be known to the public.
Great analysis of the lyrics bro, this was my first listen through and I have to say you nailed it.. well a piece of it.
...damn.Flawless lyrics.Just...flawless.
"with 'Dance with the Devil' it was a true story that I made myself more of a part of when I wrote the song, it became an urban legend and what's sick is that people thought it was about rape and it was really about how we are killing ourselves and destroying the most valuable resource that the Latino/Black community has, our women."
this song is crazy
This song gives me the feels and I just can't stop listening to it.
This song uses just about every element of literature and psychologically thought provoking concepts possible. The sophomore English class at my school is doing an entire project on this song.
dis shit scary asf
It's been years since I heard this
Damn
here to remind you to listen to it again :D
Best lyricist on earth right now. period.
such beautiful lyrics to match a beautiful tune. nicely done
for all of you who don't know, Billy is short for William.
+Amber Gee
you hear that everybody? thats the moral of this story!
+liddo pizza well some people were saying that they weren't the same person. no one said it was the moral of the story. so smd
You are a girl you smd
Lido stop trying to be a troll and act all tough trying to bully women go pick on someone your own size, oh you did? Got beaten up? Cute do it again.
I didn't know that...
Hes telling you to dont get caught up with fame fortune and the wrong things stay you or else you will be stuck with the devil forever
I heard this song for the first time last night. This is just amazing, simple as that. A masterpiece of rap.
Man the Goosebumps i get from this..
Better than Drake
What's the point of this comparison?
facts
September 2018??!
6 years laters and i still get the chills.
Holy fucking shit. This song is just damn.... this is the kind of song that sticks with you for days and you can't stop thinking about it
this kinda like stan lol
chill the fuck out

obviously u don't understand his music
stupid u don't get it
What if billy took the gun and killed all of the other guys and then helped his mom. Plot twist
+Cole Johnson he couldn't live with , nor his mother , but yea atleast he could kill the other guys then suicide
+Cole Johnson Yeah.. But... he had already raped her....
Billy should have eliminate all his friends before himself I like your point
Life lesson, sick flow, instrumental which matches the mood of lyrics. You don't get a song like this with straight flow for 6 minutes
Damn.. Nice flow and a dope beat! Such a sad song!
that's what happens when you don't ask ur mom for permission to go out lol
i wonder where the dude who posted this is at in life now
Zanvolt ?
I hope hes well

Immortal Technique is a very talented song writer, and indeed, this song is very deep. Great song.
What a great song and great meaning.too!
4 years ago i listened to this song and then i swore never to listen to it again. look at me now putting this on repeat
tsss the deepest song ive heard my whole life
I just had a vision, an epiphany. This song changed my life.
This song is awesome!
Gifted artist ...raps on a sad reality of human depravity: the desire for recognition, fame, power, and money!😢
This song is so sad! ...... I love it. -3
wtf...amazing ,now this is raw hip hop !
Still the darkest Hip-Hop tune I've ever heard.
Love this song.
love the addition of Mobb Deep at about 5 minutes in. One good song used in another
This, and You never know. Will always be my top 5 Tech songs..
Rap and piano, that's new for me. I got surprised quite a couple times. The language is very direct.
The whole tunes cold as...
This is probably the only rap song that speaks to me. It almost makes me cry every time I listen to it. Old rap like this was the best. Current rap artists rap about random sh*t. No meaning what-so-ever.
Even though he says it's true he didn't. He's just showing how good he is a story telling.
this song will forever give me chilless
cried.
this was too touching.
scarily so.
I can never get enough of this song... Its so fucking deep and just.... i just don't even know the words to put it as how deep it truly is. I cant believe that he was with him doing that.
Love it u almost gall in to the lyrics and ir a part of the story
Literally gave me chills
damn this song just gave me the chills at the end.
Goosebumps activate! The end was creepy as hell. No pun intended.
cried, this song made me change as a person.
This made me shiver a lot and made me feel bad about myself for some reason.
This song is still amazing in 2012!
sends a shiver down my spine...
This Song Always Gave Me Chills.... The Way He Paints This Picture Is Downright Scary... Not Many Lyricists Can Do This....

"the devil grows inside the hearts of the selfish and wicked" the most true and yet impacting sentence in the whole song. "so when the devil wants to dance with you you better say 'never' because a dance with the devil might last you forever."
my god this is just EPIC ..i almost cried
probably the realest rapper alive right now.
not rappin about money, and bitches.
or that radio garbage.
this is real. this is reality.
Very few songs can make an impact on your life.. this is one of them
this gets in my soul.
Immortal Technique = One of the best rappers of all time
